FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
HWY 414 in Baker, Oregon sits above 15% of rated Oregon bridges on inventory load rating (18 t), while its 1960 build year is earlier than 82% of Baker's recorded-year cohort (188 bridges).
HWY 414 in Baker, Oregon is rated Fair in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1960, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 5. The lowest applicable rating sets the federal condition category, so this Fair result describes the weakest reported component rather than the structure as a whole. No NBI category is a closure decision or a live crossing-safety verdict.
